THIS TOUR IS NOW LIVE, SIGN UP!
If you want to see the old OP, just hit the more
button! ^__^
I’m starting a tour so that people can try
out different keycap materials and switches. If you want to
try mounted MX switches, go sign up for Hashbaz’s Universal
Switch Tester. The Mr. Interface Switch Try Bag has
these switches
as well as a MX Ghetto Green that tjcaustin is making for me
(THANKS BRO
). The tour also has the following caps:
- Thin ABS (Thanks for the donation from Lastpilot!)
- Thick ABS or Cherry Doubleshots (Thanks for the donation Mashby!)
- Thin PBT (Thanks for the donation Mashby!)
- Thick PBT (Thanks for the donation from Lastpilot!)
- 2 Tipro relegendables (Thanks for the donation The_Beast!)
- Zinc Cap (Thanks unnamed friend!)
- Wario PBT Doubleshot
- Thin ABS in DSA profile (Thanks for the donation ray4jc!)
- 4 POM Caps (Thanks for the donation Takaki!)
-
4 Thin DSA caps (Thanks for the donation ray4jc!)
Details can be found here.
This tour will be starting in June 2013. I am hoping to get 5-10 people interested in the tour. Shipping work the same as Akimbo’s previous/current tours. Shipping will be in the form of a USPS Small Flat Rate Box, which costs $5.85 to mail.
The Tipro is from The_Beast. Thanks so much to everyone who donated!

So I’ve seen switch testers floating around GH.
Hashbaz
has one and Mr. Interface on DT has a whole subforum on
them. Switches define how a board might feel and decide
whether or not you buy.
But I think there’s another
keyboard element that is missing: The keycaps. How many
times have you seen the debates on whether or not Signature
Plastics’ doubleshot ABS caps measure up to the Cherry
doubleshots. Or how Imsto’s thick PBTs are better than
normal PBT caps. Maybe you want to try and PBT or POM cap
but don’t feel like paying money for something you’re unsure
about. Maybe it seems silly to buy a SINGLE cap just to try
a new material out. Ever want to see how “Cherry-like” SP’s
caps really are?
I guess my point is, if we have switch
testers, maybe we can send around a cap tester. We could
help answer all these questions.
We could mount a bunch
of different caps on a tenkeypad, board, or maybe even
these. I’m talking like POM, PBT, ABS, Zinc, and anything else
I’m missing. And then maybe stepped caps locks, scoops,
nips, center dots, scoops/nips as well.
I apologize if
this is a bit wordy, I like to write lol. But would anyone
want to sign up for this?
